Grievance

Grievance management is a necessary and normal element of employment relations. In most cases, these issues can be resolved quickly via informal discussion and good management. There are times, however, when a more formal approach is needed and where our help may make all the difference.

Our Consultants provide a grievance management service where the problem is swiftly reviewed, professionally investigated and managed, ensuring good practice and expert handling and record keeping for legal compliance.

We have a strong track record in handling more complex and senior level issues.

Disciplinary

The law relating to fair discipline and dismissal is not always straightforward, partly due to the regular development of case law.

The importance of measured and reasonable treatment of affected employees is absolutely essential to avoid the risk of tribunal proceedings or in-house employment relations.

Our Consultants provide a disciplinary management service which quickly, professionally and legally progresses issues to conclusion. They will meet with the employer to review the facts and move quickly into responding to the issue at hand, including conducting the investigation and/or, if required, chairing the disciplinary hearing.

"A challenging employee relations issue arose within our organisation. Our legal advisors recommended Think People Consulting and we engaged them to independently manage the issue. The HR Consultant took ownership of the issue, followed our policy and managed the issue for us, providing independent and expert advice. The Consultant kept me fully informed during the process and also liaised with our legal advisors. I met with Think People at the end of the process and was happy with the outcome and the service provided. I would feel confident working with Think People again in the future and would recommend their services to others"
